Description Peter Müller 2018-06-30 10:27:30 UTC 
Currently, Tor runs as user "nobody". Since this makes granting permissions and firewall rules hard, it should better run as user "tor".

I am sure you created this one as a reminder for yourself. Not sure if anybody else cares about tor other than you :)
